The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man
Chapter 1212 - Chapter 1212 1212 The corpse in the well 2

Chapter 1212: 1212 The corpse in the well 2 Chapter 1212: 1212 The corpse in the well 2 The mansion was divided into several small courtyards, including the owner’s area and the servant’s yard.

This small courtyard had a well, which was very deep, and its well water was still usable.

Third brother used water from this well for cleaning, as one could see.

Su Qingyue watched him busily stoking the stove fire and drawing well water, all so that she could wash her hands with warm water in the cold winter.

A warmth couldn’t help but rise in her heart.

Thinking about it, third brother was really good.

When the family was poor, she herself was reluctant to eat or use anything, even calling him a petty cat, yet he was willing to let her eat and use things, always saving the best for her.

The family had been making good money for quite some time now, and never once had she seen him become prideful because of wealth.

In the village, many families, when they had no money, were one thing, but as soon as they acquired a little wealth, they’d put on airs like new rich, especially those who married the same wife, would immediately find their wives objectionable and marry another.

She had always thought third brother was slick and superficial, someone who planted flowers and radishes alike, but after spending so much time together, she realized she was wrong.

Third brother was only ever teasing her.

When it came to other women, he never gave them an extra glance, nor did he have much to say to them.

Not to mention the village girls, even Beauty Tao, he had never given Tao Meijiao’s looks a second glance.

All this was before she regained her beauty.

Now it could be said that they were very wealthy.

Third brother was still as diligent as ever and had never mentioned buying a servant.

Moreover, third brother was smart.

When he shouldn’t be soft-hearted, he was utterly resolute, so there was no worry of him being seduced by other women.

Such a man actually had very good character.

“Third brother…” Leaning against the doorframe, she spoke up, “Let’s buy a few servants.”

After he got the stove fire going, he washed his hands with cold water, “That sounds good.

You’ve suffered following me around, let’s buy a maid to serve you first.”

“If there are suitable servants, we can buy a few more.

Once our medicine hall opens and this residence is rebuilt, we’ll need quite a few helpers.”

“I’ll listen to my wife.” He came over and wrapped his arms around her waist, “Dear, I already bought some basic supplies this morning.

This afternoon, should I make a trip back to the village, or should we buy some new bedding?

After adding some daily necessities, we’ll be ready to move in.”

“Let’s buy new ones,” she said, “The village is too far away.

We should go and order a few more sets of winter clothes too.”

“That’s too expensive…”

“That’s alright, money is meant to be spent.” She pinched his cheek, and the half-dry mud on her hand smeared onto his handsome face.

“Well, well, wife, using my face to wipe your hands…” He pretended to be annoyed, but she burst into laughter, “A rag is just perfect for it.”

“A rag, is it?

Come, wipe some more…” He grabbed her small hand to rub it on his own face, prompting her to scold, “You dirty fellow!”

That afternoon, Su Qingyue and Xiao Yuchuan rode in the carriage to purchase many supplies, and she also dragged Xiao Yuchuan to buy several ready-made outfits for both of them.

Bedding, bowls and chopsticks, window paper…

A pile of new items filled the carriage.

Su Qingyue then sat beside Xiao Yuchuan on the outside of the carriage, driving the horse together.

The carriage stopped at the main entrance of the haunted house.

By now, it was already evening.

“Eh?

Are you two entering the haunted house?” An elder about sixty years old approached from the roadside.

Xiao Yuchuan stepped down from the carriage, “Yes, I’m Xiao Yuchuan, we just bought the house yesterday.”

“I’m a nearby resident, just call me Old Zheng,” Old Zheng glanced at the sign on the haunted house’s gate, “Young man, why would you buy such a house?

Several people have died in that house, all young when they passed away, and there are resentful spirits seeking revenge!”
